Lidia Thorpe and Hollie Hughes clash in fiery Senate encounter 

A heated clash has broken out in the Senate with Lidia Thorpe accusing Hollie Hughes of racism.
The accusation came after Ms Thorpe was allegedly interrupted while giving an Acknowledgement of Country.
Ms Thorpe had been speaking when she paused for a moment before saying: "Is that racism? Is that racism?"
"Can I just call out racism in this chamber right now please? Chair, President, call it out," Ms Thorpe said.
Ms Hughes then called on Senator Thorpe to withdraw the accusation before a heated verbal clash ensued.
